Austin Convention and Visitors Bureau

Austin is the capital of Texas, home of the University of Texas at Austin® and gateway to the beautiful Hill Country. As the Live Music Capital of the World®, the city has a soundtrack all its own. Live music venues flourish with rock, indie, pop and Tejano. World-class restaurants with legendary barbeque and farm-to-table cuisine whet your appetite. One-of-a-kind boutiques line South Congress and the 2nd Street district. Head to the heart of downtown for a cool dip in Barton Springs or try stand-up paddle boarding on Lady Bird Lake. When it comes to Austin what you hear is true. www.austintexas.org
